jus for fun i listed the bottom feeder hardware companies of the valley. which one do you think is lowest in terms of average bay TC
Is intel less than Cisco?
Possible
HPE?
Ah forgot HPE.
Yeah it's definitely lower than Intel, Amd, and Micron at least (speak from experience).
Not even sure why Cisco is on the List🙄
Cisco pays significantly lower than FAANG.
Not really though. Microsoft offered me way less than what I currently earn. I declined and didn't even bother negotiating. I know some google folks who earn less in base salary. Although they make up for it in stocks. But still....
Where is Qualcomm?
I know for a fact qcomm is higher than western digital and HPE
idk how bad WD, Micron & the ilk are, but qcom pays well for SD once you hit Staff Eng. The problem is that the stock is pretty much equivalent to cash given that it doesn't grow at all. Cash that's locked up for 4 years.
I’d say averagely all the same. WDC pays good bonus when market’s good. RSUs not much different from Intel and Qualcomm. Base maybe 5k less. I guess that’s it lol
Curious what’s your level and TC?
4yoe, 130k base, 40k yearly refresher and 15% target bonus.
Haha some folks here really need to look at levels.fyi It is sobering.
For senior level yes. The stock portion is way off
Covers perfectly look at Apple. Intel G9 for eg 240K compared to matching Apple ITC4 320K. I know it sucks.
Please list company that you think is lowest if not in the list above
